Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition/Vehicle & All vehicle systems - Off
- Disconnect the electrical connector: M60A Active Grille Air Shutter 1 Motor Module/M96A Active Grille Air Shutter 1 Actuator.
- Disconnect the electrical connector: M60B Active Grille Air Shutter 2 Motor Module/M96B Active Grille Air Shutter 2 Actuator.
- Test for less than 10 ohms between the test points: Ground circuit terminal@M60B Active Grille Air Shutter 2 Motor Module/M96B Active Grille Air Shutter 2 Actuator & Ground
- If 10 ohms or greater
- Disconnect the ground connection: Ground circuit terminal
- Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Ground circuit terminal@Component harness & Ground circuit terminal
- If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 ohms - Repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.
- Go to next step: If less than 10 ohms
- Ignition - On/Vehicle - In Service Mode
- Verify a test lamp turns On between the test points: Ignition circuit@Component harness & Ground
- If the test lamp does not turn On and the circuit fuse is OK
- Ignition/Vehicle - Off & Remove - Test lamp
- Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Ignition circuit@Component harness & Output terminal@M96 Fuse
- If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 ohms - Verify the fuse is OK and there is voltage at the fuse.
Or
- If less than 2 ohms - Refer to: Power Mode Mismatch
- If the test lamp does not turn On and the circuit fuse is open
- Ignition/Vehicle - Off & Remove - Test lamp
- Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Ignition circuit@Component harness & Ground
- If less than infinite resistance - Repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- If infinite resistance - Replace the component: M60B Active Grille Air Shutter 2 Motor Module/M96B Active Grille Air Shutter 2 Actuator.
- Go to next step: If the test lamp turns On
- Ignition/Vehicle OFF, disconnect all LIN devices that share the same LIN serial data circuit.
- Ignition ON/Vehicle In Service Mode.
- Test for 3.5-12 V between the LIN serial data circuit terminal and ground.
- If less than 3.5 V
- Ignition/Vehicle OFF, disconnect the harness connectors at the K20 Engine Control Module.
- Test for infinite resistance between the LIN serial data circuit terminal and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground in the circuit.
- Go to next step: If infinite resistance
- Test for less than 2 Ω in the LIN serial data circuit end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- Go to next step: If less than 2 Ω
- Replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
- If greater than 12 V
- Ignition/Vehicle OFF, disconnect the harness connectors at the K20 Engine Control Module.
- Ignition ON/Vehicle In Service Mode.
- Test for less than 1 V between the LIN serial data circuit terminal and ground.
- If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage in the circuit.
- Go to next step: If less than 1 V
- Replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
- Go to next step: If between 3.5-12 V
- Verify how many LIN devices are connected to this LIN circuit.
- If there is only one LIN device
- Ignition/Vehicle OFF, inspect both harness and component connectors for contamination, corrosion, and terminal tension.
- Reconnect the harness connectors at the LIN device. Verify all connectors/terminals are fully seated.
- Ignition ON/Vehicle In Service Mode.
- Verify the DTC is not set again.
- If the DTC is set, replace the LIN device that is not communicating.
- Go to next step: If the DTC is not set
- A fault is currently not present and may be an intermittent condition.
- Go to next step: If there are two or more LIN devices
- Ignition/Vehicle OFF, disconnect the harness connectors at the K20 Engine Control Module.
- Reconnect the harness connectors at the first LIN device.
- Ignition ON/Vehicle In Service Mode.
- Test for 3.5-12 V between the LIN serial data circuit terminal at the K20 Engine Control Module and ground.
- If less than 3.5 V or greater than 12 V
Replace the LIN device that was just connected.
- Go to next step: If between 3.5-12 V
- If less than 3.5 V or greater than 12 V
- Ignition/Vehicle OFF, reconnect the harness connectors at another LIN device.
- Ignition ON/Vehicle In Service Mode.
- Test for 3.5-12 V between the LIN serial data circuit terminal at the K20 Engine Control Module and ground.
- If less than 3.5 V or greater than 12 V
Replace the LIN device that was just connected.
- Go to next step: If between 3.5-12 V
- If less than 3.5 V or greater than 12 V
- Repeat steps 15-17 for the remaining LIN devices until a faulty LIN device is identified. If there is no faulty LIN device, replace the M60B Active Grille Air Shutter 2 Motor Module/M96B Active Grille Air Shutter 2 Actuator.
NOTE:
It may take up to 2 min for all vehicle systems to power down before an accurate ground or low reference circuit continuity test can be performed.
NOTE:
For accurate voltage reading, disconnect the battery charger prior to performing the following test step.
